Keep in mind that most of the images will be replaced with a placeholder image because of licensing. Also, the demo templates don’t include WP options and widgets, but you can easily create them yourself.

WordPress Customizer allows you to set up the general styling of the website visually. You can edit stuff such as site settings, fonts, header options, and more.
From Site Settings you can change your website’s title, tagline, logo and favicon. You can then select the static Front Page and the Blog Page.
Customize the theme’s style from the Style & Settings tab. Choose from different color skins and layout options. You can select one of the 7 basic color schemes or set your custom colors, switch from Boxed to Fullwidth layout and show/hide the frontend customizer.
Edit the header and top bar as well. You can opt for normal menus or choose a sticky menu, enable or disable the search form, and add social icons.
The Footer area is also highly customizable. This will be the same on all the pages and you can add as many widgets as you want. Here you can set up the footer logo and its dimensions, the count of additional widget areas, footer text, and copyright.
Adding custom icons and choosing from hundreds of free Google Fonts is also possible, with just a couple of clicks. Apart from Theme and Visual Composer Icons you can also include your own icons in your site.
